Amazing how the first shots of the day show a huge crowd & then almost empty! Guess your touring plan was different then everyone else the pics! how you do color black & white of the same shot & it look completely different

I second that! You are a wonderful photographer!

I am finally caught up and what wonderful photos of Tokyo Disney!!! I am always amazed at how similar, yet different all the parks are!

I might be in the minority here, but I think I would've given that curried popcorn a go--did they have any other oddly flavored (odd to us Westerners, that is) popcorns?
Great update, per usual, Cheryl!

Well, except for the Japanese writing on some of the signs, I almost feel as if you are throwing in some pics from WDW! Except that some of the walkways seem more spacious.

What fantastic pictures of Frontierland. I LOVE the sepia shots. And I agree, the shot of the ferry head-on is Amazing!!

I the Tiki Room in WDW but this one with Stitch looks adorable. I recently saw the Lilo and Stitch movie for the first time - I know - bad Disney fan. Anyways, I fell in love with the guy. I so wish they'd show him in a better attraction than Stitch's Great Escape. That thing is down right scary.

Oh yes, lots more odd flavours - and I can tell you that we did sample some, just not the curry one...

Touring plan? What touring plan? I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't really have one, apart from hit any rides that were Tokyo Disney ones only - apart from that, we did just wing in, very unlike me!

Wednesday 8 April – part four: a very enthusiastic Jungle Cruise skipper!

From there, it was over to the Jungle Cruise, which only had a 10 minute wait. Let’s just say that the skipper was very, very enthusiastic. I have never heard anyone get so loud before, but sadly for him, it didn’t work, as we were the ones who laughed the most and we didn’t understand a word of it. It was interesting to see the lack of reaction amongst the Japanese and it was a shame for our enthusiastic skipper. This is very similar to the Walt Disney World version with the trip through the Asian temple.



After that, we wandered through the rest of Adventureland.



We wandered into New Orleans Square next:



Look what I found in one of the shops here:



Then we headed towards the shops in Main Street, as our first meeting point with Donna and her family was due shortly, so we browsed and it was fascinating to see the shop displays and what was available here. Perhaps the weirdest things I found were the mirrors with Disney frames around them…



W headed back to Café Orleans, but there was no sign of Donna and her family. After a few minutes, we headed for the Pirates of the Caribbean. This one is very much based on Disneyland and you can see that from the second you walk in, with the boats round in front of the line. We only waited five minutes and then it was off. This is very similar to other ones, although this has the Jack Sparrow and Davy Jones effects added that Disneyland and Walt Disney World have, but it’s interesting that Disneyland Paris still doesn’t have that.



After we came out of there, it was food time, so we headed for the Great American Waffle Company, which I had seen a little earlier and admired. I got a Mickey waffle with chocolate sauce, while Mark went to Casey’s to get a hot dog. The Cast Members were only too happy to pose proudly with my dish, as they presented it to me!



Next: a tight squeeze in the Haunted Mansion

Sorry we were late! Glad you were able to partake in that waffle though
